Chapter 1072 Half-month Training
Time passed quickly in the busy schedule. The promotion of the new drama came to an end, and the filming of her role in "Harem?" was also completed.
The crew simply held a wrap-up party for her. After the party, Su Yunshu was not idle and went to Suzhou without stopping. "Years" would be filmed there.
Su Yunshu had previously given up the leading female role in "Harem?" just for this movie.
The preliminary preparations for the film have been completed. Next, as long as the actors complete their training, we can officially start shooting!
Before filming the TV series, all the actors have to participate in a half-month intensive training.
The time span of this drama is quite large, with most of the timeline being set in the 1960s and 1970s.
In order for the actors to better understand and interpret the characters and stories of that era, they need some simple training on the history of that era.
Through these trainings, the actors can have a deeper understanding of the social background, cultural atmosphere and people’s lifestyle at that time.
In this way, they can more realistically restore the style of that era during their performances, allowing the audience to feel the unique charm of that special period.
Su Yunshu had no objection. He came here in such a hurry because he didn't want to miss the intensive training.
The crew had high expectations for this drama. In order to ensure that the historical background of the 1960s and 1970s presented in the drama was accurate, they specially invited a university teacher to tell the actors about the history of that period.
This teacher is not only a scholar specializing in history, but also has a unique style in teaching.
Unlike traditional history teachers, his teaching style is not old-fashioned.
He would use vivid and interesting examples and stories to bring historical events to life for the actors.
His explanation not only helped the actors better understand the social outlook and people's living conditions of that era, but also stimulated their interest and curiosity in history.
Under the guidance of the teacher, the actors seemed to travel back to the 1960s and 1970s, experiencing the atmosphere of that special period firsthand.
Through learning, Su Yunshu gradually understood why the director gave them history lessons first and then performed the film.
The reason is actually very simple and clear. If a person knows nothing about that period of history, then he cannot truly understand the motivations and background behind every decision made by people of that era.
And for an actor, if he doesn’t even understand the role he is playing, how can he talk about interpreting the role?
Only when actors have a deep understanding of history can they better grasp the character's personality, behavior and emotions, and thus more realistically show the character's charm and complexity.
In this way, the audience can feel the atmosphere of that era and the connotation of the story more deeply when watching the movie.
Halfway through the training, a small incident occurred. A young actor felt that the history training was boring and secretly played with his mobile phone in class.
The teacher remained calm and after talking about a key historical event, he suddenly asked the actor a question.
The actor was startled and could not answer, his face turning red.
The teacher did not criticize him, but smiled and said, "Don't think that this historical knowledge is useless, it is the soul of our character creation.
Just like what I just said, if you understand it, the character you play will react more realistically when facing similar situations. "
Su Yunshu listened and nodded continuously, and the young actor's face turned even redder. After that, everyone listened to the class more seriously, as no one wanted to embarrass themselves in front of so many colleagues.
The half-month training ended quickly and the actors gained a lot.
They have a deeper understanding of the 1960s and 1970s and a clearer understanding of their respective roles.
After understanding the history, your understanding of the role will change.
At this moment, the director made a wise decision and gathered everyone together to start reading.
Some people may be curious, why didn’t we allow everyone to hold a reading session together before?
In fact, the reason is very simple. Without sufficient understanding of history, the actors’ grasp of the inner world of the characters is bound to be insufficient.
If we hastily hold a reading session at that time, it will not only fail to achieve the desired effect, but may also make everyone feel confused and lost.
In contrast, the timing is perfect now. After a period of in-depth research, the actors have a clearer understanding of the historical background and a deeper understanding of the character's personality, motivation and emotions.
At the reading session, everyone will be able to interpret the characters more accurately and better showcase the charm of the story.
The director's decision to gather everyone together for reading at this time was undoubtedly a very wise one.
It not only saves time and energy, but also allows us to communicate and discuss more efficiently during the reading process, thus laying a solid foundation for subsequent filming work.
